This make-up brush roll was inspired by a project in one of Lotta Jansdotter’s books. I use a lot of brushes in my daily makeup routine (hello, mineral makeup!) and I wanted a way of keeping them all organized and clean in one place. I just couldn’t find anything that would hold all of my different brush sizes AND I wanted something other than basic black. When I was a flight attendant, this really kept me organized when I was on the road.

I used upholstery fabric for the body, and pre-packaged trim to keep the edges neat. I’ve been using it daily for a little over a year now, and it holds up well to being washed on the gentle cycle with a delicate soap.
